Westlife singer Brian McFadden, TV presenter Saira Khan and former Strictly Come Dancing professional James Jordan will pick up the skates when the competition returns to ITV next year. Speaking to This Morning hosts Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby, she said: “As a young girl, my brother used to play ice hockey, so I was at the ice-rink a lot.” She continued: “I know how hard it is. I’ve done my research, Phil – I am scared, I am nervous, I don’t know how they’re going to lift me up and how fast I can move around the ice, but I really want to give it a go.” Former EastEnders star Blackwood was hotly tipped to be a contestant following a string of posts on the competition’s official Instagram page. So dancing and skating are two different things, which I’ve got to combine.” Other celebrities expected to be taking part include broadcaster Gaby Roslin, Westlife’s Brian McFadden and Love Island champ Dani Dyer, who is said to have been offered £100,000 to appear.
